Oh no Mindy it's the matchless right? I'm so sorry! I'm still in love with my ladybug, I know that Schact has beautiful products, but it sounds like it's not an issue with the wheel but that you don't like something about it. The design maybe? Is it uncomfortable to use?
I got some fantastic news today, the contractor who did the addition on my house came by and looked at the roof, which badly needs to be replaced. The thing is its only 7 years old, so it's within his warranty time frame and I get a new roof for free! That's a $10,000 relief!

I feel horrible that I feel like I hurried you into it. I wonder if you got a lemon?

I'm not sure, from what I'm reading on Rav I think people are suspecting either something damaged in shipping that is throwing it off or that it's a lemon. I won't get another one to find out though, if I send it back, I'll get another tried-and-true Kromski, kwim?

I wish it was just not liking it, it doesn't work. The drive band just falls off no matter how I adjust, and to get it to work at all there's so much drag on it that it hurts my arms and legs to spin. I've been told it shouldn't be like that (which I figured, cause it's terrible) but nobody seems to know what's wrong. The dealer is having me try it in scotch just to rule out certain issues with it, so I guess that's my homework for now.

I'm having a pity party and need to get out of this funk. I'm wallowing in the fact that I just spent $1k on a wheel and the only thing I like is the orifice hook. I emailed the dealer but I kind of don't even want it in my house right now (pathetic). I keep telling myself to keep trying, I can figure out how to "make" it a good wheel, that if it's so popular it can't be as bad as it seems, but I really want to take the chainsaw to it.

Sorry about the wheel! I'd be super frustrated to spend that much and have it be a lemon. Would the dealer replace it?

Cute! Hope the button band makes sense soon. DS1 loved our Ergo and still asks to go in. I tmried him in it recently for kicks and his feet hit at the back of my knees, lol.

Great news!

AFM: Leaving the mall now. Stopped by for a quick lunch at this awesome little Greek stand. Hope the boys go comatose in the car so I can rest and sew at home.

Our Tempurpedic Mattress just got delivered!! While I'm not excited about doing touch up paint... again... I cannot wait to get in bed and watch a full disc of our new Big Bang Theory Season tonight. This bed is a stinkin dream and the base elevates and vibrates and stuff. Lol.

I've been having problems grafting my shoulders for some reason and thankfully after pulling them out once on both sides, I see the new skein I knit in is much more pink..I was lazy and didn't alternate for the few inches at the top in the back. The hood will cover it because I doubt I will actually wear the hood much, but I think I may pull it out anyway so it doesn't bug me.

going to to get the kids ready for bed. Mama is ready for sure.

I will pick the sweater back up on Mon. I really hoped for a vest, but I wont' rush it.

I don't like how the legs are coming along. I might need to add a few stitches.

And, my sister wants me to keep my niece. I told her no because I'm sick and in tired. I have 2 sick kids and her daughter was here most of today being loud. Jevin didn't nap. She wants to see some guy. Honestly i am sick of her and her multiple "friends."
